A Week of iPhone Vlogs

It was kind of accidental, but after having so much fun making a whole bunch of iPhone vlogs last week I just carried on during the first week back at work, and made one every day. Each one comes with a brand new soundtrack sketch too. 

A great workout (thanks @jrclark_fit !). A great brunch (thanks me). A great pizza (thanks parentals). . . . #vlog #avocado #outdoors #fitness #soundtrack

Yesterday was the first day back after a week off. Did some work. Made some buttermilk chicken. Watched the Apple event. Not so bad in the end! . . . #bedhead #soundtrack #electronic #wwdc #vlogger

Another day. Another quick vlog. Been super into making these again, so even on a pretty usual day of meetings, errands and catching up with @ellieroutledge, there’s still something fun about throwing it all together with a new soundtrack sketch... . . . #soundtrack #vlogger #southampton #create #exploretocreate

Things learnt from today’s vlog: pasta is great. 24 hours in police custody is also great. It’s six weeks till I arrive in the arms of @fleurshomo 😍 . . . #pasta #cooking #travel #map #troyesivan

Waking up to RuPaul; before a day at Arts University Bournemouth; followed by a workout, a vegan pizza and a lazy evening stroll; there are worse Fridays honestly. . . . #veganfood #pizza #aub #bournemouth #soundtrack #beats #vlogger

A long overdue catchup with @piprichardson and a late night gig with @kingofjeans — Saturdays are made for these kind of things. . . . #soundtrack #vlogger #boyswithlonghair #southampton #livemusic #lifestyle

The Great Vacation 2017: First Steps

One of my big plans for 2017 is a trip to America: The Great Vacation.

Preparations for The Great Vacation are in three parts this January:

1. Healthier and Happier: I'm working on eating healthier, exercising more and feeling happier with myself and my body. To help the health and fitness part, I've been following lots of advice from The Body Coach, and Joe Wicks' January Bootcamp workouts have been particularly useful. To help the happiness part, I've been using the Headspace app, and the guided sleep exercises have been a surprising success too.
2. Motivation Maps: I bought two map prints from Mujumaps and put them in two frames from Ikea to sit on my living room walls, above the dining table and overlooking my exercise space, to act as a motivation for eating healthier and being more active.
3. New Passport: The last time I had to get a passport I was going to the Ukraine with work, and left it so late I had to drive to London to order a rushed one. It was crazily expensive, and I refuse to make that mistake again, so I'm ordering my renewed passport in plenty of time this year!
